The convenient battery can be recharged at any time, no memory effect (it does not tend to run out after many charge cycles), always ensuring great power.

Universal battery charger for MAKITA batteries.

Equipped with battery and 1 slot for charging it.

Therefore, you only need one battery and one battery charger in order to be able to use the full range of equipment offered by Makita.

LONGER LIFE: up to 3 times higher than nickel–cadmium batteries, reducing the need to recharge during long periods of use.
Ideal for medium-large gardens.

FULL CHARGE FOR THE ENTIRE BATTERY LIFE: the charge of the lithium-ion batteries does not fade. Unlike nickel-cadmium batteries, which power gradually decreases, lithium-ion batteries’ cells maintain constant power throughout the entire cycle. The same charge for the entire cycle without reducing the motor speed. The battery is running at full power until its complete exhaustion.

LONGER CHARGE LIFE: lithium-Ion batteries last 3-4 times longer than traditional Nickel-Cadmium batteries and their power storage lasts longer so they lose less power. Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged up to 2000 times!

LIGHTWEIGHT: lithium-ion batteries have the best power-weight rate. They weigh 1/3 of nickel-cadmium ones.

ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY: lithium-ion battery-powered tools are recyclable and are produced without heavy metals.

NO MEMORY EFFECT: lithium-ion batteries can be recharged at any time without negative memory effect. Indeed, they don't fail to provide maximum power even after hundreds of charge cycles.
Few minutes of charge are enough to complete the work.

LOW DISCHARGE RATE: low discharge rate (up to 5 times lower than nickel-cadmium batteries) so your machine will be ready to use even after months of storage.

BATTERY CHARGER: lithium-ion batteries chargers reduce energy consumption by an average of 35%.

Advantages of the electric motor:

• More reliable than a petrol model. No spark plug, filters, oil dipstick, carburettors, etc. or components which can cause problems.
• Zero maintenance
• Much lighter
• Lower consumption and drastically reduced operating costs compared to petrol engines (great results with minimal power required). Moreover, the Operator won’t have to refuel (the fuel should always be fresh).
• Zero vibrations, thanks to the electric motor. Instead, almost all engine-powered machines, which are not equipped with an anti-vibration system on steel springs, have a very high degree of vibrations, making the work quite unpleasant.
• Zero smoke emission, zero impact on the environment and, above all, on the Operator’s health.
• Much more silent and therefore pleasant to use than a petrol engine.

The transmission shaft of the brush cutter features a diameter of 24 mm and is made of aluminium. This makes it very long-lasting and lightweight at the same time.

- Ergonomic loop handle

Control dial for adjusting the operating speed according to the needs.

The control are easy and intuitive, allowing to select 2 electronic speeds.

Focus on the quick release.

The attachment can be mounted and removed from the machine very quickly thanks to the quick-release coupling.

The brush cutter head is equipped with a Tap'n Go line head, which allows the line to be extended by pressing the head against the ground while rotating.

The stone guard is equipped with a counter-blade for adjusting the line, and can also be configured to operate with steel blades with the simple release of two tabs.
